Yey! I am a fetus now!

Week 8 and I graduated from embryo. I have grown rapidly from last week and I matured into a fetus (foetus).


The outline of my face is now more apparent and the two halves of the face grow together and meet in the middle which is why you have two different profiles. The organs that have been developing up until now are starting to function: the brain produces its first impulses, the kidneys pass out waste and urine, and the stomach produces digestive juices.


I am starting to make small, erratic arm and leg movements. That is how I actually practice to flex the limbs I’ll be using once born.
